So I just got into buying nice shoes this year. Previously, I've been buying whatever cheap comfortable running black shoe I could wear until they fell apart. Here are my pickups since the new year started: http://imgur.com/a/UxX9f

What do ya'll think? Total cost for all of them were just under $300

(The radial monos are the sneaker I wear to work, so I don't clean them that often.)

I ended up passing on the 1s too.

I'll cop the Little Red Flyknit Racers on Friday and save the money for Air Max month and AJ1 Royal in April. It's all good.

I was originally keen on the 1s but with the Silver Bullet AM97s out next week and the potential for the SF-AF1s to eventually come to Europe, and then VaporMaxs on the horizon as well. Just didn't make sense to go for them.

what are the nikes called that are sort of like a high top roshe with a strap towards the front, not the back like a huarache?

thanks

LeBron loves his girlfriend. There is no other woman in the world he’d rather have. The problem is, Dwyane’s not a woman.
Gonna take that sweet sweet hard L on the Zebras

Was gonna impulse buy the 1s, woke up 2 minutes after the drop and was in queue to see if they were confirmed. Sold out in my size lol.

Not too worried though as gonna go for the triple black NMDs this weekend instead.

Mesh NMDs can't be too hard but black boost seems to always sell out. I can't imagine they're more than 130$.

Should be $130-$140. I'll be looking to get them online. There'll be a bunch of sites selling them throughout the day, looks like.

dope, appreciate it

one last question (sorry, been buying leather boots + shoes for the last several years) - sizing looks TTS / 0.5 size up on the mesh NMDs?

i wear 9.5 in Nikes, but i like a little roomier toe box because my dumb feet seem to be getting wider as i get older. what do you guys go with?

I would have considered these but none of the Canadian shops I frequent stock them.

Unfortunately they were a sneaker politics collab so I copped them from their online store (some shoe sizes still available!)

Just look at that goddamn attention to detail with Primeknit, suede and gold accents. UNGhhh. Also dat gum sole.

Holy shit that took a while. Damn. Glad you held onto the W.

I'm not sure how I feel about the stripe down the middle but it's growing on me.

Ah pics weren't loading on my phone. Yeah, was hoping they would look more like the samples that were floating around. I'll need to some more pics. Hopefully see some on feet pics before they come out.

That's not really much to go on. At least show what seller rating.

Anyway, I wouldn't even trust anything coming from a 3rd party. The fakes are REALLY good now. Tell you friend to get his money back and pay someone for an add to cart service instead. And not off eBay.

Hard to say without a bunch of pics of the actual shoe / box. There's lots of fakes on eBay, even sometimes from high rated sellers, and Yeezy replicas have gotten really close to the real things.

No guarantee that it'll be a fake, but you have to be super careful with resale Yeezys right now.
